Thanks for mentioning that Paddy!
Just wanted to point out the possibilities off the nodemcu. But it's important to say that linear voltage regulators can get very hot, it's how they work.
I ran an esp8266 straight from 12 V but it just woke up from deep sleep every minute or so and took some sensor readings, so heat wasn't a big issue.
